need some nice tires

I have a 190 2.3-16V I need to get new tires soon and want a good performance tire but something that will also provide a nice ride, it currently has Pirelli p6000 and they are the worst thing I have ever bought for the car. Any advice?

I dunno where you live so I don't know what you require in your tires in term of weather needs, but a tire within the same class as the P6000 which has found favorable reviews here and there has been the Bridgestone Potenza RE950...

which size?

I'm assuming (which I hate to do) that you need 205/55/15s on stock Wheels. I think Continental's new ContiExtreme Contact has a perfect review, and is ranked #1.

Click on the ContiExtreme Contacts and you will se the reviews. I think 205/55/15 with a V-rating go for only $68 a tire. Great price. Highly recommend it.

depending on your personal needs you will be able to find a tire in this tire search ... as for me, I would suggest the Dunlop 9000 or the Yokohama ES100
